Sliding Door Child Lock - Baby Proof Closets, Glass Door, Windows, 2 Pack, Clear

The amount of times weve forgotten this was even a thing and tried to whip our slider open is unreal... I didnt see this little guy lasting a day let alone a week but months later its still going strong!

I thought it was going to be hard to figure out how to set it up but it wasnt. I followed the instructions as well as I watched the video that was posted. I tried it out and then I stuck it down to the glass of the slider. So far my 6 year old grandson hasnt noticed it. I was scared to try it at first because I was going from a bike chain and a lock to this device but what a surprising change. I have since removed the bike chain set up and now I feel in the event of a fire this device would be easier to unlock in a rush. I originally thought it was going to be like a flimsy plastic but its like a rugged, heavy plastic.

I use these locks on my sliding closet doors. My cat loves getting into my closet. He learned how to paw the doors until they slid open—which is very cute, and totally what cats do. However, whenever he has gotten into my closet, hes knocked things over and it looked like a train drove through it. So... after devising makeshift blocking systems—which entailed cutting to-size, and placing a long gift wrap tube along the runners, to keep the doors from sliding—my wife suggested these. Perfection! No more cardboard tubes. Easy access to opening and locking my closet doors. My cat still tries to get into my closet, but now I let him in supervised from time to time. :-)

Easy to attach and gives decent protection from your door opening and you not hearing it. I have a sliding glass door with a removable doggie door partition. When it’s in my door is left just sitting against it. Installing his has been a peace of mind for me. If they yank at the door it will break but it gives you the chance to react and does hold pretty well!

My two year old sleeps independently in his room, and early in the morning or before bed he’d be sliding his closet doors open and slamming them closed, resulting in huge banging noises and even his fingers would get caught sometimes. I’d have to go in there several times to tell him to stop, but nothing worked. This lock is worth the price! He can no longer open the closet doors and we all sleep peacefully now, and no more hurt fingers!

This product works well 98% of the time. My reason for the 4 star rating is that if you pull on the door in a specific way, the lock failed. It wasnt a hard pull, since my 3 year old was the one who got the door opened a few times in a 3 week period. Its been hard to replicate that instant as my husband and I havent been able to pull it open. Since then though the lock has held up, and he tries to open the door frequently.

Our toddler could open the sliding door to our deck. Putting this in the top corner means he can’t anymore. I appreciate that you can lock and unlock it one-handed.

Surprisingly strong little buggers. Perfect for sliding door with dog door installed. It beats using a stick to hold the door closed, and security tension bars can make opening the door take a bit too long when youve got excited puppy creatures that are excited to get outside RIGHT NOW BECAUSE SQUIRREL. The other thing I was going to try if these didnt work was one of the quick access foot locks, but wasnt too keen on drilling into the frame so I figured what the heck Ill try the flimsy looking plastic contraptions first. Alas, they arent flimsy at all. Few things, and they arent complaints. - If you have a dog door installed in your sliding door, the weather striping/flap can block these but thats easily solved by cutting a small enough tab out to allow clearance. (See picture) - One thing I was concerned about was the amount of pressure these could apply on the door in order to make a firm seal when the door is closed. The 3M strip attached to these are strong enough but I wanted them to be able to withstand as much pressure as possible, so I removed the 3M strips, added Gorilla Glue clear double sided tape AND Gorilla Glue epoxy. After the appropriate dry time, these babies arent going anywhere. Ever. We might have to replace the glass if we decide we dont want to use these any longer. Gorilla Glue is no joke. - Lastly, if you desire an even firmer seal, you can add a bit of Gorilla Glue tape to the weather striping where the pad in these makes contact when in the locked position. (See photo) Youd be surprised how much additional pressure just the width of that tape can add to your doors seal. Long story short, these fellas are strong, easy (quick!) to open, and with the right modification/reinforcement they can provide an impressive amount of pressure on your sliding door to create a firm seal when its closed.

Our older home has sliding closets, including the pantry (snack) closet. These were perfect to keep our littles out of the snacks or digging out stuff from their closet. Quick to install and simple to lock and unlock for easy entry.
